Blackberry Buttermilk Bundt

I Like Big Bundts - Day #28

We're almost to the day! National Bundt Day! Woo Hoo! We're on Day #28 of I Like Big Bundts 3...bringing you 30 bundts in 30 days.

Today's bundt is a yummy Blackberry Buttermilk Bundt from Bill Yosses' book, The Perfect Finish. This is a really lovely book (wonderful photos) with lots of bookmarked recipes. Check it out here on Amazon or see if your local library has it!

Bake a bundt for National Bundt Day on November 15th! Then submit a photo or blog post by November 24, 2011 and I'll send you a 1 1/4" button for baking along with me! The submission info can be found here!

Bill's recipe calls for a heated glaze to be poured over the bundt. I didn't do that and just made it quick orange juice and powdered sugar glaze. Um, that was my creative decision...yeah, right. It has nothing to do with me not reading the directions completely. Nah... ;)

Grab some blackberries and make a bundt! Hope you are baking up your Bundt to celebrate National Bundt Day soon! :) Have a great one today! - mary the food librarian

I love the look of that cake - blackberries are a favorite! I'm also coveting the 6 cup bundt pan, but so far am resisting because of my overflowing pan collection. I'm working on my National Bundt Day post right now - such a fun season, Bundt Season, thanks to you!!

Blackberry questions - I picked up blackberries at my local grocery store....think it was Ralphs. They were grown in Mexico or Chile - don't remember but I know they were imported. Probably Mexico... - mary

I can't believe I haven't found this until today! I absolutely love bundt cakes, and shudder at the thought of letting National Bundt Cake Day pass without me commemorating my favorite cake! I found I Love Big Bundts at about 3 am last night, and have been dreaming of the right cake to submit since. I just took mine out of the oven, and am so excited to post it on the 15th! Thank for you doing this. I'm heading to check every one of your bundt cakes out!
